When Divinity ‘Vin’ Anderson first responded to her pen pal Peter Young, she had no way of knowing that a temporary class assignment would turn into a very real crush. Separated by thousands of miles, since he lives in Georgia, the reality of ever meeting in person allowed him to be an unfulfilled fantasy.
Living in Eastpointe, Michigan she’d heard about the Little Shepard’s Camp where Peter is going her senior summer, but never had she imagined her childish fairytale dreams would change from theory to reality when she meets him. One night in the woods has her flying high, only to crash back to earth when she returns home.
Reality had harsh edges hard enough to leave scars.
Over a decade has passed when Vin is sent by Elrod Motors to Georgia. When she has to pass by a town with a familiar name. Descriptions from the past, now vibrant and real, emerge after speaking with recruited employees from his hometown. A picture is being painted of the saintly man who had abandoned her all those years ago. An apology and kind words have her falling all over even though she knows she needs to guard her heart. Only she can’t help sensing Peter is holding back a secret, one that could destroy her belief in love altogether or teach her how happily ever after can come when you step behind the curtain.
